Buccaneers of Freeport True20 Web Enhancement Buccaneers of Freeport True20 Web Enhancement Design: Tim Emrick Editing: Erica Balsley Copyright 2011 Green Ronin Publishing, LLC. Green Ronin, Freeport: The City of Adventure, True20, and their associated logos are Trademarks of Green Ronin Publishing. The game stats in this enhancement are Open Game Content. In 2008 Green Ronin released Buccaneers of Freeport, a system-less sourcebook detailing some of the cunning rogues and ruthless cutthroats that ply the waters around Freeport. While you can create your own game stats for the characters presented in the book using the information provided, this enhancement aims to give you a hand by doing all the heavy lifting for you. Here you’ll find complete True20 stats for the characters in Buccaneers of Freeport. Note: This PDF has been laid out so that no character wraps at the column or page, so you can easily print the complete stat blocks you need for a given game session. 1 Chapter 1: Three-Sheets Kimbal Chapter 1: Three-Sheets Kimbal Three-Sheets Kimbal is a pirate with more legends gathered about him than there are gold coins in his biggest score. The lovable rogue himself spread most of these stories, some of them contradictory, in order to keep his friends and enemies alike guessing at what his next crazy scheme will be—and to make them eager to hear all about the next one. He recruits a new crew whenever he has a new scheme to pursue, and rarely takes on the same crew member twice, so very few know Kimbal well enough to tell fact from fiction. The one element that unifies Kimbal’s adventures is his incredible luck. He’s always getting into dangerous situations—through his own actions or blind chance—but always manages to get out in some do-or-die, daredevil maneuver. Among his numerous enemies is the church of the Pirate God, whose treasury he once looted. Despite that—or perhaps because of it—Harrimast seems to smile on Kimbal, and his vengeful clerics are never quite able to catch the slippery captain. Three-Sheets Kimbal ”Leftenant” Drake, The statistics below are one possible interpretation of Kimbal’s First Mate deliberately confused myth. He may have vastly different abilities in other campaigns, depending on how the GM wishes to use him in the Drake was a Tagmatan naval officer and decorated war hero.

The very name strikes terror, disgust, or both in the hearts of those who ply the seas around Freeport. This orc captain callously hurls his violent crew at other ships, taking great losses as they slaughter their unfortunate prey, but he never lacks for new recruits when he makes port. Most other pirates won’t have a thing to do with him, due to his dangerous temper and vile record. Somewhat surprisingly, Scarbelly’s crew hardly ever cause any serious trouble in Freeport itself, so the Captain’s Council seems unable or unwilling to put an end his crimes. Meanwhile, the list of people with a grievance against Scarbelly grows longer, while the orc doesn’t seem to care one whit what anyone thinks of his deeds—as long as they fear him. Captain Scarbelly Aggro, the First Mate Scarbelly is listed as “journeyman” in The Pirate’s Guide to Freeport, and Aggro is first mate of theBloody Vengeance, and also the crewman who as a 7th-level warrior in the True20 Freeport Companion. In Buccaneers, has known Scarbelly longest—they belonged to the same tribe, before he is a “master” with several “journeymen” crew, so alternate statistics taking to the sea. His love of violence and pain makes him ruthlessly are presented here. efficient at keeping the crew of line, and his lack of ambition makes him the one member of the crew who Scarbelly remotely trusts. Agrro Captain Scarbelly (Rep +2) lives for very little beyond the sadistic pleasures of inflicting pain, and in Scarbelly’s company he finds plenty. Type: 11th Level Humanoid (Orc Warrior 11) Size: Medium Speed: 30 ft. Aggro (Rep +2) Abilities: Str +4, Dex +1, Con +2, Int +1, Wis -1, Cha +0 Type: 8th Level Humanoid (Orc Warrior 8) Skills: Acrobatics 9 (+10, +9 armored), Climb 9 (+13, +12 armored), Size: Medium Intimidate 14 (+14), Jump 9 (+13, +12 armored), Knowledge Speed: 30 ft.

  • SILVER AGE SENTINELS (D20)
    Talking Up Our Products With the weekly influx of new roleplaying titles, it’s almost impossible to keep track of every product in every RPG line in the adventure games industry. To help you organize our titles and to aid customers in finding information about their favorite products, we’ve designed a set of point-of-purchase dividers. These hard-plastic cards are much like the category dividers often used in music stores, but they’re specially designed as a marketing tool for hobby stores. Each card features the name of one of our RPG lines printed prominently at the top, and goes on to give basic information on the mechanics and setting of the game, special features that distinguish it from other RPGs, and the most popular and useful supplements available. The dividers promote the sale of backlist items as well as new products, since they help customers identify the titles they need most and remind buyers to keep them in stock. Our dividers can be placed in many ways. These are just a few of the ideas we’ve come up with: •A divider can be placed inside the front cover or behind the newest release in a line if the book is displayed full-face on a tilted backboard or book prop. Since the cards 1 are 11 /2 inches tall, the line’s title will be visible within or in back of the book. When a customer picks the RPG up to page through it, the informational text is uncovered. The card also works as a restocking reminder when the book sells.

  • True20 Adventure Roleplaying Trademark License FAQ
    True20 Adventure Roleplaying Trademark License FAQ Q: Do I have to submit my products for approval? A: No, you do not. We've tried to make the license easy to use. If you just follow the terms, you shouldn't have any problems. Q: Can I use this license for electronic products other than PDFs, like character generators? A: No, this license is only for the publication of printed books and PDF products. Any other sort of products must be licensed from Green Ronin on an individual basis. Q: Why can't I put True20 or True in the title? A: Green Ronin has established a naming pattern in its previous True20 books and we'd like that pattern to remain unique to official releases. Q: When can I start publishing using this license? A: Any time after May 12, 2008. Q: Can I use this license to do product in other languages? A: Yes, you can. The only additional limitation is that you must follow the terminology used in the appropriate True20 corebook if it exists in the language you're going to use. For example, Wyrd Edizione publishes True20 in Italy. If you want to do Italian language True20 material, you must follow the translation standards of Wyrd's version of the core rulebook. This is to ensure that terminology remains consistent in each language. Q: What should the Section 15 of the Open Game License in my product include? A: For starters it must include the entirety of the Section 15 from the Revised Edition of True20 Adventure Roleplaying.
